+ + COACHING NEWS + + In 10 days, I will start with VGC Coaching again. You can find all the info in this sweet graphic (courtesy of @Domjiii ). Lets hit Regulation H off with a MichaelderBeste student win 😉

It's insane how consistent the best players are, both in online and offline events. I don't know why I struggle so much with VR tours in general because I play very well in limitless tournaments. Maybe I gotta face the fact that my biggest weakness is more exploitable in these 🤫

Played Groudon in VR and god, this mon is a fraud, never playing it again #metamanipulation

I had a fight with an inspector cause I apparently booked a wrong ticket. It was crazy cause they started insulting me right off the bat. Some people really need to learn their job instead of letting their anger out on the citizens. Hopefully they learnt a lesson :)

Worlds prep is going well 😊

Lets see how I'll start in the next season. Each season I cut my first event in each season (T8 in Bochum, T8 in Stuttgart, T16 in Dortmund). I'll try my best to keep this streak alive!

The Pokémon Presents was a huge success. I am very happy with everything they showed, even the small stuff. New megas, Shiny treasures of Ruin and the Champions info really topped everything off, so I'd give the direct a 9.5/10

I qualified for the Grand Slam Playoffs. This will be my last smogon tournament for a while but I really want to give it my all cause the Grand Slam is one of the most prestigious tournaments. Lets see if I can showcase my allrounder skill in Lower Tiers like UU, PU or Little Cup

Unfortunately I lost in Top 8 against the runner-up of the the 800+ player Smogon VGC Tour. Pretty happy with the result regardless, I finished 8-0 in games today before our set which ended in a 0-2 loss. I gotta say I did not expect much but it feels good to be back again, LFG!

Can somebody recommend Animes that are similar to "The Shiunji Family Children" and "The Quintessential Quintuplets". Asking for a friend <.<

Made Day 2 in the Smogon VGC Live tournament with a record of 7-1 (12-3 in games). I was so happy how I played today but the job is not done. I'll give it my all tomorrow again and maybe I can come out on top 😁

We are going back to where it all started 🫣 play.limitlesstcg.com/tournament/686…

Whenever I'm down, I just turn on Anime openings and think about the time I spent with my friends. That's my trick to get motivated again and feel way better than before :]

I can recommend it if you want either some practice for worlds or also just get better in general. The best of the best will play in this tournament and it's free to enter. I'm looking forward to it x)

I can understand that some of the categories are controversial. I never meant any harm but I'll think twice about what I include in the Award ceremony. Also, for the people you can vote for, I simply took the 4 most nominated people (excluding troll submissions), my bad abt that!

OH MY GOD 😭😭😭 I WANNA GO THERE, AHHH

I'm pleased to announce that the voting round for the VGC Awards can start now. Thanks so much to everyone for nominating a bunch of people, in the end I narrowed it down to 4 people per category. That being said, RTs are appreciated again, thank you! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

The only REAL tierlist :) [I would rank MiraiPagos between CSR Korai & Swordfish]

REALTALK

My preparation for worlds this year so far was to watch all other worlds and I gotta say that 2019 and 2022 were "interesting" so far. I hope the farther back I go, the better it gets. Maybe it's due to the formats but Reg I is hopefully going to be better than 2019 and Series 12

Being the only European who has finals appearances with Calyrex-Ice is kinda crazy to me x.x
